Chapter 47 So He Came for His Mother (2/2)



"I never imagined Uncle Qin's cooking was so good." Qiao Lian'er said, placing the jar on the counter and hanging the smoked sea bass and smoked duck above the stove. These smoked products need to continue smoking to preserve their quality.

"Your Uncle Qin's cooking skills are excellent. Everyone in the village says that his skills are better than many young women and wives. Some people even go to his house specifically to buy his pickled and smoked products."

Qiao Yunni sat back down at the sewing table and continued working.

"But we can't accept all the gifts he gave to the Qiao family for nothing. We'll send over a few pounds of dried mushrooms in a couple of days."

"Okay." Qiao Lian'er certainly knew the principle of reciprocity.

As Qiao Yunni sewed the pants, she couldn't help but recall some past events, and a blank expression appeared on her face.

But soon, she shook her head, suppressing those thoughts that were rising in her mind.

The space was filled with another cup of divine talisman water. Qiao Lian'er was about to pour it on the cabbages when she suddenly thought of Qiao Yunni.

She took the glass of water out of her spatial storage, poured it into a bowl, and moved it in front of Qiao Yunni.

"Mother, have some water."

"I just had some water, I'm not thirsty."

"Mom, please drink it." Qiao Lian'er began to whine.

Qiao Yunni didn't know why Qiao Lian'er insisted that she drink water, but she still accepted it with a smile.

"Okay, Mom will drink it all." Then she drank the whole bowl of water in one gulp, like coaxing a child.

Even if Lian'er is smart, she is only twelve years old, so it's normal for her to have some childlike qualities.

This bowl of water is a little sweet, and drinking it gives you an indescribable feeling that spreads throughout your body.

Qiao Yunni thought it was because she had made too many clothes and was a little tired, so she drank cold water to refresh herself.

After drinking too much water, Qiao Yunni got up to go to the toilet a short while later.

For some reason, she felt that her steps were more steady, and she could walk faster without her body swaying.

Qiao Yunni was very surprised.

She considered trying to run, but then decided against it.

Judging from Qiao Yunni's gait, Qiao Lian'er knew that the talisman water really worked. After drinking it a few more times, she would probably be able to recover completely.

She just hadn't thought of that at first, otherwise Qiao Yunni would be better by now.

"Yunni, your family also bought pigs, chickens, ducks, and a puppy. You've bought everything." A neighbor passed by the door and heard the lively noise in the Qiao family's courtyard. He peeked out and saw that so many livestock had been added all of a sudden.

Qiao Yunni was still making clothes. In the basket next to her, there was a large pile of fabric in various colors. In another smaller basket, there were insoles and shoe patterns of various sizes that had been cut out.

These all cost money.

Qiao Yunni smiled at the villagers: "It's just a little bit we have to scrape together from between our teeth. Piglets, chicks, and ducks don't cost much. If we're diligent, we can raise them and they'll have meat to eat."

The villagers thought the Qiao family had struck it rich, and hearing this, they were relieved.

He said a few kind words before leaving.

Qiao Yunni shook her head. Some people are just like that, laughing at others' lack and resenting others' good fortune. Who can truly hope that others are doing well?

As the sun set, the Qiao family members returned one by one, each carrying a full basket. Those who were less strong had a fine layer of sweat on their foreheads.

"We found at least three hundred catties," Old Man Qiao announced as soon as he entered the door.
